These are the spells you will encounter in your travels. For the most part, you won't need to "learn" them in order to cast them.

SSS - Allows you to compell the Seven Serpents to share information. 2 questions each, topics include Mampang (clues for book 4) the Serpent's weakness, the location of the other serpents, and the Sham. It can be found in the cave on the cliffside (Ancient World), Bria's home (ditto) and the beacon in the forest.

ZOB - Create a Rock Demon (an incredibly tough monster). Requires a Rock Demon tooth (huge, diminishes your stamina while carrying it). Can be learned in a spellbook bought from the Black Elf caravan trader. Bria also hints about the spell. You'll find one tooth in the Kariamma tunnels, another by climbing the mountain towards Bria's abode in the present time, and can purchase 1 tooth (or sell the one you're carrying) at the Tinpang dentist. You can only carry one tooth at a time.

TUF - Cast in the circle below the steppe beacon (Ancient World). Increases your maximum stamina by 4(!) points. Requires a Yellow Feather as an ingredient. One can be found when leaving the tunnels past the village of Kariamma. Another can be found by foraging in the western part of the forest, below the bridge - search the trees and the nest. You can only have 1 feather in your inventory at a time, so you'll have to backtrack if you want both stamina increases. You may have to visit the circle at night to learn the spell, then wait until daytime to cast it.
